Abstract: Abstract Introduction: Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death worldwide. Subsolid nodules (SSN), including ground-glass nodules (GGNs) and part-solid nodules (PSNs), are slow-growing but have a higher risk for malignancy. Therefore, timely diagnosis… read more here.

Abstract: Computed tomography-guided transthoracic biopsy (CTTB) and shape-sensing robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (ssRAB) are diagnostic modalities for evaluating high-risk pulmonary nodules. Previous studies have been limited by inconsistencies in defining diagnostic yield (DY). The advent of strict DY… read more here.
